# gmenu3
GTK XDG Application Menu for Fatdog64 Linux.
Homepage: .
## Description
Gmenu3 reads a menu specification file conforming to the [XDG Menu
Specification], and displays the corresponding pop-up Application
Menu. On [Fatdog64 Linux] gmenu3 can replace the Application
Menu provided by the Desktop panel and the Openbox window manager.
> The implementation of the XDG Menu Specification is partial;
> just enough to fully support [Fatdog64 Linux].
## Features
In addition to the standard Application Menu categories,
gmenu3 offers the following optional features:
- Recently-used submenu.
- Fixed screen position.
- Search app entry.
- Embedding the Fatdog64 Control Panel as a submenu.
- Disabling icons or changing the icon size.
- Changing the font family, color, and size of labels and tooltips.
- Wine submenu (if [Wine] is installed and properly configured).

## Installing
Gmenu3 is a shell script. It depends on several
commands that come preinstalled in Fatdog64 Linux:
- [gtkmenuplus] >= 2.2.0 [>903]
- [makesymlinks] [>903]
- [findnrun] [=903] is preconfigured as the Search app (can be changed).
- gawk, find, realpath, sed, xargs.
> [>903] Preinstalled in Fatdog64 versions after 903.
> [=903] Preinstalled in Fatdog64-903.

A basic Makefile is provided to install the script and its manual page:
```sh
make PREFIX=/usr/local all install
```
## Usage
Usage is straightforward; this is just a popup menu, after all:
```sh
gmenu3 [options]
```
pops up the menu. There are some command-line options to manage the cache; refer
to the [manual page]. User preferences are initialized automatically the first
time gmenu3 is used. Have a look at the [sample configuration file] to see which
optional features can be enabled.
